Beach Days
Whether you are headed to your favorite spot down the street or to a new patch of sand somewhere far afield, a neutral palette feels fresh. Try natural fabrications, braided details, and top off with statement sunnies.

The key to the best people watching in the best summer cities is to be in comfortable camouflage – so what could be better than a neutral color scheme! Works for old world cities and modern concrete jungles alike – especially when you combine old world embroidery with modern trainers.
